The reaction to dbMaestro TeamWork, database change management solution, at last week’s IBM Rational Innovate 2010 conference confirms that we can confidently talk about TeamWork as the next generation of database change management.  The response to TeamWork was uniformly positive.  To back this up, dbMaestro and go-ESI recently conducted a survey of database professionals to gauge what they thought was important in a database change management product that breaks away from the previous generation.

The top requested features were:

• At all times know precisely who did what, when and how to all databases – database version control
• Enforce a manageable change policy to all databases
• Have total control over the database change process
• Significantly reduce, or even eliminate the risk of errors during database deployment

This is what TeamWork is all about!  It brings the proven principles of software change management (SCM) to the database world, enhancing productivity through controlled collaboration.  TeamWork seamlessly addresses the needs of DBAs, database developers and compliance officers without impacting any one group.  Working across development teams, integrating the functionality required by DBAs and automating compliance reporting all come naturally to TeamWork.  It was built with the needs of all three groups in mind and today it is delivering on that promise!
